I previously wrote about the upcoming UEFI CA rollover . Well, it's happened now - the old Microsoft UEFI CA from 2011 expired yesterday : Third Party Marketplace Root (used for signing option ROMs and other software) Subject: C=US, ST=Washington, L=Redmond, O=Microsoft Corporation, CN=Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011 Validity Not Before: Jun 27 21:22:45 2011 GMT Not After : Jun 27 21:32:45 2026…

## [Secure Boot and Microsoft CA Rollover - user-facing documentation](https://blog.einval.com/2026/06/05#secure_boot_ca_rollover_docs)

I previously wrote some advice for developers and distributions about the upcoming Microsoft CA Rollover, and I hope that was useful for people. I've now also added some user-facing documentation about the CA rollover in the Debian wiki at https://wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot/CAChanges . I've added guidance on managing certificate updates on Debian systems: how to check if a system needs those…

Background I'm a member of the EFI team in Debian, and I've done much of the work for Debian to support UEFI Secure Boot (SB) in recent years. We have included that support for a number of releases now, starting back with Debian 10 (aka Buster ). I'm also a long-time accredited member of the shim-review team, the group that checks and approves shim binaries before Microsoft will sign them. See the…

## [Mini-Debconf in Cambridge, October 10-13 2024](https://blog.einval.com/2024/10/26#Cambridge-2024)

Again this year, Arm offered to host us for a mini-debconf in Cambridge. Roughly 60 people turned up on 10-13 October to the Arm campus, where they made us really welcome. They even had some Debian-themed treats made to spoil us! Hacking together For the first two days, we had a "mini-debcamp" with disparate group of people working on all sorts of things: Arm support, live images, browser stuff,…

It's been a while since I've posted about arm64 hardware. The last machine I spent my own money on was a SolidRun Macchiatobin , about 7 years ago. It's a small (mini-ITX) board with a 4-core arm64 SoC (4 \* Cortex-A72) on it, along with things like a DIMM socket for memory, lots of networking, 3 SATA disk interfaces. The Macchiatobin was a nice machine compared to many earlier systems, but it took…

It (was) that time of year again - last weekend we hosted a bunch of nice people at our place in Cambridge for the annual Debian UK OMGWTFBBQ! Lots of friends, lots of good food and drink. Of course lots of geeky discussions about Debian, networking, random computer languages and... screws ? And of course some card games to keep us laughing into each night! Many thanks to a number of awesome…

Warning: If you're not into meat, you might want to skip the rest of this... This year, I turned 50. Wow. Lots of friends and family turned up to help me celebrate, with a BBQ (of course!). I was very grateful for a lovely set of gifts from those awesome people, and I have a number of driving experiences to book in the next year or so. I'm going to have so much fun driving silly cars on and off…
